THE MAN WHO WANTED

TO LIVE FOREVER
There was once a man who wanted to live forever. He lived in fear of
dying. One day he was walking along and saw a Chinese dragon.
“Oh, dragon,” he said. “I live in fear of dying, I hear that you live forever.
I wish I was you.”
Then the dragon spoke, “Kind man, you shall not like living forever. I will
show you what it feels like.”
The dargon carried him to an island where nobody died. The man lived
there and was amazed at how the people would buy poison. Then after a while he
understood, the people didn’t enjoy living forever.
He called the dragon. “Take me back!” he commanded.
The dragon said, “I see you have learned your lesson.”
And now in China when people see the dragons they say, “We are happy as
we are, oh, Dragon.”
